Tone Profile

The bass tone is warm, round, and supportive, laying a solid foundation for the song's groove. It's a classic Motown-esque bass sound, thick but not muddy, with a subtle presence that helps it cut through the mix.

Recording Notes

• The bass was likely recorded with the amp in a relatively dead room to avoid excessive reflections.
• A direct input signal may have been blended with the amp's signal for added clarity and punch.

Recreation Tips

• Use a flatwound or roundwound strings on a P-Bass.
• Roll off some of the high frequencies on the bass using the tone knob.
• Use a subtle amount of compression to even out the dynamics and add sustain.
• If using an amp simulator, choose one that emulates the characteristics of an Ampeg B-15.
